Welcome to the Wackerlin Center for Faith and Action at Aurora University. 

Students gather here to study together, slow down and reflect, volunteer to serve, engage in allyship and advocacy, and seek support from our staff. We advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion and are proud to be a space, resource, and support for all students. 

The Wackerlin Center includes the following offices:

  • Chaplain's Office: Helps students grow in their faith and take part in experiences that will help them cultivate their beliefs as well as see and value the perspectives of other spiritual traditions.
  • Office of Black Excellence: Supports students by promoting academic excellence through mentorship and advising, creating programming that promotes cultural awareness, and offering trainings that develop campus cultural competency.
  • Office of Latino/a Excellence: Provides students with educational, social, and leadership opportunities to promote self-awareness, celebrate the Latino/a experience, and help students develop individual success plans.
